Hardened shafts might not be any stronger, but should be more resistant to wear.

Bending driveshafts sounds quite nasty and several possibilites, as i don't think bending a CVD is a common problem....

-Poor manufacturing quality, maybe you got a bad batch of shafts that are made out of the wrong stuff?
-Big crashes... work on the driving
-Something wrong in your setup/build making the shaft prone to bend (although i can't think of anything you could do on a b4 to make the shaft snag)

Ive only ever bent one driveshaft on a b4 and it took the squat block, wishbone, hub and shock shaft with it.
